Layout needs some changes.
We were allocated a room on the boat next door to the red boat. Good points:- Cheap Not to far from public transport Negative points:- No additional facilites like common space if you are not on the red boat itself Only 2 toilets, which were up staris, so they layout was not great. The showers were very small, better use could have been made of the space. Overall the stay was ok, but the layout needs some changes to make it more comfortable.

We thought it was going to be a unique experience - you know staying on a boat. It was cool at first, but everyone shares a bathroom. We went to go use the toilet and someone had peed all over the floor and toilet seat. It was so noisy, there was drunk people talking at all hours of the night and screaming and laughing in the hall. We couldn't call the night security cause our phones where on airplane mode and we didnt want to be charged. Basically got no sleep, but I guess you get what you pay for.

Cozy boat experience
This boat hotel has a lovely vintage style from the moment you walk in with it's beautiful wooden interior and wonderful decor. The room was cozy, clean and warm, and although we slept on a bunk bed it was surprisingly very comfortable. In terms of the location, it is perfectly situated in the center of Stockholm city with close walk to coffee shops and main attractions. The only small disadvantage is having to share toilets and bathrooms, which you would expect from a small boat, but otherwise the stay was very comfortable and we barely felt the boat rocking as the waters were very calm. Staff were very friendly too and we got along with them, so overall it was a great stay!

The room is a very simple crew cabin in an actual old timey fishing type boat ( think "Deadliest Catch" or "The Perfect Storm", parked right on corner of Riddarfjarden Bay, perfectly located between Galma Stan ( Old Town, historical tourist area, tour boat docks ), and Sodermalm ( hip, young area with restaurants, night life, shopping ). Insane view of Stockholm from the any of the decks, at any time, day or night.

The Red Boat is very unique and the service was great! We really enjoyed our stay. Shared bathroom facilities were kept clean. It is difficult to access rooms for those with limited mobility due to the ramp up to the boat with rooms and then the narrow spiral staircase down to the rooms. So can be difficult to manage with suitcases vs backpacks.
